Each cell is 2.13V. Little 1.5V AAA, AA, C, and D cell batteries are dead at 1.2-1.3V. Fully charged at 1.6V. I'm so cheap I check them with a voltmeter before tossing them out.

Rechargeable (NiMH) AAs are rated
1.2V. Just tested a freshly charged pair at 1.36V. I like them, but some devices perform
noticeably better with "inferior" batteries. I wonder why?
